[Guardian] 18 Jul 2008--There are times when you're not in the mood to see people - you're having a fat day, you're exhausted, upset or simply antisocial - but you have to.

However difficult it may be to drag your sorry self away from the house there are always more advantages to going out than staying in. If only someone had told the Gafcon bishops this.

At the Lambeth conference, few are bemoaning the absence of traditionalist Africans - except journalists scuttling around to make bricks out of hay - and the Americans are left calling the shots and, boy, are they doing it with gusto.
